Ronny,
    I remove the metal ash container  (I'm a non- smoker).  The empty space provides room for the power cord to sit behind the unit.  I can still operate the volume control on the radio with no problem.  I'll try to attach a  photo.

Ray, How do you put it in the tray because of the metal lip, which is not flat?
And can you still operate your radio?

  I have a Garmin C-580.  It sits nicely in the ashtray with the power plug inserted in the lighter (power socket).

  I am planning to buy a Tom Tom 930 because of the voice command and the choice of multi language system.
  But what is the best way to have it on the dashboard? In California we are not allowed to connect it to the wind shield.
  Any of you with recommended experience?
